20080216845 | Vertebral Fracture Quantification - A method of deriving an estimate of the extent of fracture in a vertebra shown in an image of part of A spine is provided. The images of at least two vertebrae are segmented to obtain data representative of the shape and size of each of the vertebrae. An approximation of the shape of a first of the vertebrae is reconstructed by comparing the data obtained for a second of the two vertebrae with a mathematical model of at least the same two vertebrae of an unfractured spine. The unfractured shape of the first vertebra is predicted to enable a comparison of the shape and size of the first vertebra as imaged with the predicted unfractured shape and size. The difference between the respective images is subsequently computed to obtain a result representative of the extent of fracture in the first vertebra. | 09-11-2008 |
20090204338 | Method of deriving a quantitative measure of the instability of calcific deposits of a blood vessel - A computer-implemented method of processing an image of at least part of a blood vessel to derive a measure indicative of the instability of calcific deposits in the blood vessel, said blood vessel containing at least one calcific deposit, comprises locating and annotating one or more calcific deposits. Using information derived from the annotation of said calcific deposits, the method further comprises calculating a measure reflecting either one or both of a) the aggregate of the deviations from roundness of individual calcific deposits, and b) up to at least a threshold value, the extent to which the separate calcific deposits are spaced from one another. | 08-13-2009 |
20100135549 | VERTEBRAL FRACTURE PREDICTION - A method of processing data derived from an image of at least part of a spine is provided for estimating the risk of a future fracture in vertebrae of the spine. Position data relating to at least four neighbouring vertebrae of the spine is processed. The curvature of the spine at least two of the neighbouring vertebrae is calculated. The different curvature values are computed to obtain a value representative of the degree of irregularity in curvature of the spine and using the degree of irregularity, an estimate of the risk of a future fracture in vertebrae of the spine is provided. A higher degree of irregularity indicates a higher risk of future fracture. | 06-03-2010 |
20100177946 | SEMI-AUTOMATIC CONTOUR DETECTION - A method of locating a contour of a structure in an image by processing said image including the structure is provided. A starting set of digital data representative of the image including the structure is taken, the structure in said image having annotated on it from three to ten landmark positions. A statistical model of said structure to the landmark positions annotated on the image is fitted and an initial estimate of the contour of the structure made. Using grey level information derived from points adjacent the estimated contour the contour boundary is iteratively moved to produce a final estimate of the contour of the structure. | 07-15-2010 |
